İstanbulspor - Rizespor predictions

The 3.95 odds on a home win result mark the hosts as clear underdogs. Things are fairly lopsided, in fact, so backing such an outcome would be quite a longshot.

With a price of 2.00 on them winning, Rizespor should definitely feel more confident going into this match. Of course, the difference is not insurmountable, so we’d say a draw is quite likely as well.

İstanbulspor supporters did not exactly have high hopes heading into the Super Lig last round’s match. Their team was made a huge underdog but still managed to hold on for a draw in the first half, thus raising the expectations from their fans. In the end, a narrow Pendikspor defeat on a tough trip is nothing to be too disappointed about.

Rizespor put in a rather uninspiring performance in the first half of their previous home game against Gazişehir Gaziantep. The latter 45 minutes, on the other hand, saw them take home a stunning 3:1 victory.

With a defensive record like the one İstanbulspor boasts, their fans may have a reason to worry. They conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone – the advantage of playing at Bahçelievler İl Özel İdare Stadyumu seems lost on them.

A quick look at the visiting team’s recent history tells us a lot about their weaknesses. Specifically, we’re talking about the fact that they’ve allowed more than 5 goals over their 3 most recent Super Lig outings.

The clock is ticking on İstanbulspor who remain locked in the relegation battle. With 31 rounds behind us already, the hosts will have their work cut out for them in the Super Lig. At 3.95 betting odds offered at online bookmakers on home win, the numbers are a warning sign for the İstanbulspor fans.

Rizespor were the winners in the first match these two squads played, which happened earlier in the season. It was a rather narrow victory, but they’re still expected to triumph this Tuesday despite playing as the away team.

With Okechukwu Azubuike, Mithat Pala, Janne-Pekka Laine kept from the game due to injuries, the away team is forced to switch things up. They are still considered favourites, but it’s something to keep in mind.

If you want to get some value out of this match, you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. The best betting offers are found in the HT/FT market, specifically for a Draw/Away bet.
